%F Formula
The row polynomials satisfy (n-1)*P(n,x) = (3*n+4*n*x)*P(n-1,x) for n >= 2, with P(0,x) = 0, P(1,x) = 4.
%t Mathematica
P[0, x_] := 0;
P[1, x_] := 4;
P[n_, x_] := P[n, x] = Expand[Together[((3*n + 4*n*x)*P[n - 1, x])/(n - 1)]];
Table[CoefficientList[P[n, x], x], {n, 0, 9}] // Flatten
%o PARI/GP
P(N) = {my(v = vector(N + 1)); v[1] = 0; v[2] = 4; for(n = 2, N, my(i = n + 1); v[i] = ((3*n + 4*n*x)*v[i - 1])/(n - 1)); v};
row(n, p) = {my(c = Vecrev(p)); c};
T(N) = {my(v = P(N)); concat(vector(#v, i, row(i - 1, v[i])))};
